Cassie was puzzled, but she didn't force them to rest or anything. If they wanted to go around, then who was she to stop them?
However, she looked at them in thought, knowing they wouldn't be able to afford a guide.
Her eyes ended up on the old woman who reminded her too much of her own grandmother (who was hopefully resting right now), and decided to go an extra mile for them.
She pursed her lips, "Then I can guide you to a place to eat before I leave."
"Really?" Bumi said, a little louder than the others. When it got Cassie to give him a second look, he flushed in shame, and his tanned face was as red as a lobster being cooked.
The girl couldn't help but giggle at her own metaphor, but the sight made Bumi's eyes brighten.
He made her smile!
His grandmother wanted to cover her face in embarrassment.
